Fiji was blessed by far sighted policies where land could only be leased not purchased from the indigenous population for 90% of the land ,and in the end independence was a peaceful transition, a very different situation to New Caledonia and indeed before that Vanuatu due to strong French opposition there as well. Before that Algeria had a long and very bloody and violent battle for independence due to entrenched French settlers who were opposed to the indigenous population,s desire for independence and control and ownership of their own land.
Despite the Fiji set up , the indigenous still beat, raped stole from the tenants nonetheless. Jesus is watching!!!!!
I actually said something similar last night. Throw PNG and the other Pacific Island nations and we have a huge power get exploding.
May God help us all.
No word of support for and in solidarity with the Indigenous Kanak people’s demand for self determination by this Coalition Government. Hypocrites.
Maybe its because the French have got imperialist loving Rabuka by the balls on this foreign policy issue. He would rather visit his masters in England to part take in some military pomp and ceremonial military parade.
Assuming that if the French colonialists invited him to Paris he would jump at the invitation dressed up to show off his good for nothing medals.
Recall his nemesis, the late former PM, Dr Timoci Bavadra being a staunch supporter of the Kanak’s demand for self determination back in the day. Just saying.
If given the encouragement and opportunity Fijians are capable of equal if not worse doings to Fiji. History has documented what we can do as well…1987 and 2000.
This government encourages violence and racism each day.
